SURPRISE!

Such a fun weekend!

At about 1:30 last Friday I decided to surprise my family by coming home for the weekend. I knew Kole would be in a baseball tournament, and I honestly miss getting to see him play. So, by 2:00 I packed up a bag and was in my car driving home. I picked up 3 Route 44 Sonic Limeades for Mom, Dad, and Kole, and an ice-cream yumminess for me, and headed to Aragon where I knew Dad was having football practice and Kole was hanging out. SURPRISE! The smile on Dad's face as he walked across the field, and the energy that had encompassed Kole as he raced down the bleachers was priceless. Then, off to Fiest to surprise Mom. I walked into the building and ran into Tina, but gave her the "shhh!" look, as I sneaked into Mom's office and handed her her drink. She looked so happy, and it made me grin ear-to-ear.

On Friday, Mom and I went shopping and then we all went out to dinner (mmmm fajitas). Dad, Kole and I then watched 2 episodes of NCIS, and I got to go to sleep early!

I spent the weekend out at the ball park. I watched Avery and Kara each play their first softball game of the season, then watched Kole play to games on Saturday. Mom, Kole, Renee and I watched Soul Surfer Saturday night, and I went to bed early again. SCORE!

On Sunday we played more baseball. It was SO much fun to be able to see Kole play again, as that is something that I truly miss being up in cstat. I was able to run by my old youth group and see my youth director Kelly, and one of the girls that I mentored this past semester. It felt so weird to be there! I got volunteered to pray over dinner because I was the "visitor"... a visitor in my own church! How weird... I got back up to c-stat around 7:30 and unloaded my car which was packed full of groceries and a few new clothes (yahoo sweat pants!!!). I wrote a few letters to some of my campers that had written me in the past couple of weeks, and am looking forward to a lazy night!

This next week shouldn't be too stressful. I'm starting to study for polisci (and by study I just mean read the chapters and take additional notes) because I have that test next week. I only have one test this week, and it's in my education class so it shouldn't be anything too hard. This weekend I'm going to visit some camp friends in Marshall, Texas and I can't wait!!!
